How about an option to opt out of cv play. that way players that dont want to have terriable cv players ruin their ship game. it would not even be hard to due. Make a mode of play that called cv. that way it is a choice to have cvs. it will also give you an accurate number of the player base that actually want cvs in their game. have it after 2 minutes fill in the missing players on each side with bots. I know a lot of players that are looking for a ship alternative for wows once the no skill cv rework is launched and they cant play a game without cvs being in it. WG you need to consider the number of players you stand to lose when you break the gameplay a it has been. Ship vs Ship was what made the game popular. not cv kill al the other boats. we tolerated the cvs and continued to play cause it was only about 10% of the matches had cv's. now it ill be 60%. I personally may be leaving the game. wg you have a planes game. dont ruin your ship game. give us a option to not participate. or make it a game mode not Randoms.

It's not gonna happen, and honestly probably shouldnt be a can of worms that ever gets opened. Cause doing one would open the door for "no BB" or "no DD" games as well, which is not in keeping with the balancing of the game.

How about the option to ban people with this stupid idea? That'd be great.

I'd be for dinging people who call for any sort of opt out. Whatever the game's content is, there should never be any option to opt out of any of it. Either it's in the game or it's not. And if it is, then you have to play it, whether it's a map, a battle mode, or a type of ship.

Mind you, I wouldn't be broken hearted if carriers were entirely removed from the game, but I don't think that that's going to happen any time soon, if at all.

Regardless of one's position on CVs being in the game, or on the rework in 0.8.0, a "no ships of this type" option will never exist in WOWS.

(And if they ever make the mistake of putting subs in WOWS, I will very much want this option, but also never expect it to actually exist.)

It's not gonna happen, and honestly probably shouldn't be a can of worms that ever gets opened. Cause doing one would open the door for "no BB" or "no DD" games as well, which is not in keeping with the balancing of the game.

This is a huge reason why opt outs should never exist. You should have to deal with all content in the game, or not play the game at all.

From a programing point of view it would be possible BUT and its a big one. You could be waiting for 5 or 10 minutes for matchmaking to find you a game. If you played COD or other similar games that gave you option for map, game mode etc. Even when they had millions of players they still had a long wait in Que waiting for your preferred game mode.

Wargamings matchmaking is slow enough as it is, and the player base is nowhere close to COD side so I'd doubt they'd even entertain it

Never seen this request before. Random means random you get what you get. Stay closer to other ships to share AA if CV are that big a problem for you.

Crucis, you've got a ton of experience in this game, and I think that gives you some good insight. Many of your posts show that experience and insight. Other times you come off as a simpleton. Your take it or leave it attitude, your hard stance on so many topics show you are being shortsighted on important aspects of the game around attracting and maintaining the player base. I don't think you're a simpleton, but sometimes you put on one very convincing impression.

My "hard stances" come from not being some squishy minded fence sitter who can't make up his mind on things, or who has no core beliefs and principles and thus is like a willow tree, being blown every which way by winds of whatever opinion is popular on this or that day. I am far from a simpleton. What I am is a very principled person. And frankly, from my perspective, the simpletons are those squishy minded fence sitters.

Sure they can add it right next to the "BB opt out", "CA opt out" and "DD opt out" options. Won't it be fun when we are all you queue for hours waiting for a game with just the ships we are strong against. Well except they will be the ones selecting to opt you out of their games..
